CORRUPTION! The password.

But wait, you mean it is better we disintegrate?

Its better that way...

Nigerians should stop deceiving themselves...

Nigeria can't work... With the current level of corruption, ethnic disrespect e.t.c.

Yes. This is Nairaland and a thread will never be complete without the bolded
You guys rock.
If you break me into one trillion pieces, you will NOT find a single bigoted bone in my body. I wonder how you guys perceive these things. But pls, tribalism has not come to stay.
What is your stand?

@ bolded..whatever you mean by that.

Is easy to stay in the comfort of your fully air conditioned room, lying on a 15 inches mouka foam with your ipad or apple laptop and preach "unity"?

Did you or anybody related to you experience the 1966 massacre in the north that left thousands of easterners dead and the more fortunate ones displaced?...don't stress your pretty little head. I know the answer already.

Guess what, some families are yet to recover from that inhumane and barbaric act. Some lost their breadwinners, some families were totally wiped out, some lost properties worth millions.

How do you expect those families to just forget, and pretend as if everything is fine.

So you want to know my stand, I will tell you. ONE NIGERIA IS THE BIGGEST SCAM EVER

The Guilty Doesn't Want To Own Up, If You Don't Know Them. Then Maybe You Should Channel Your Stand To a More Concrete Floor. Face It, There's No One Nigeria.

If This Present One Is Your One. Then You Can Be In It alone o lol

So, I am Igbo now. I know how Nairaland works and I already know that your kind of comment will surface. Thanks though, your opinion is appreciated
Btw, have you ever heard of PUN. Yes? No?
Well, my reference to 'there was a country' is my way of using PUN to stress a point.

Sorry, I am not Igbo. I am Nigerian

Thank you Freecocoa
I'm not too bothered about the women that fought or their ethnicity. Anybody can fight in Lagos at anytime, as a matter of fact, some people dress up and go out for the sole purpose of fighting . Some people are even paid to fight, ask the APC and PDP thugs
What bothered me was the exchange of words after the driver drove off, if people harbour so much bitterness, yet they live together. What happens if a war ever breaks out? Where are we headed?

Okay my sister, you know I don't really think it's as bad as it sounds when they talk though,especially with the younger generation.

To Be Frank, I See Those That Stand For Oneness as Dishonest lol

If we fall we don't fall together...

Stand, I See What You're Doing, You Don't Wanna Portray The Tribalistic View Hence Stating The "We are One and I am Nigerian" Talk

But You Still Shoot Your Self In The Foot With The "We are all Guilty" Line Stuff. LoL

Hey!

What are You Guilty Of ? Please o, Me I Don't Know o Because I am Not Guilty.

What an excellent article.

Some of the responses are looking at 1966. No!!! That one is past. The one of today is clear for the present generation to see.

Look, we have some persons Bombing Us at our business and work places, going to our places of worship and killing...Rather than us unanimously Fighting it, some of us are surreptitiously supporting it for lucre. Others have turned their guns to the wrong person and shooting.

Why wont there be hate? You think the reference will be about Ojukwu, Awolowo, and Tafawa balewa/amadu bello, The answer is NO!!!!!

We got the killings of this present generation, and we are still lying to ourselves.

Go and ask those who lost their loved ones at Madala catholic church on Christmas day that the reason for the hate is because of Ojukwu, Awolowo, or Amadu Bello.

The cycle is obvious. We need to ask the right questions before we totally miss the plot

Osibanjo for Lagos state governor..

Sambo for Kaduna state governor..

Francizy for presidential godfather..

This Isssh Is Ridiculous!!

Why must the Yoruba woman win the fight in your write up, why didn't the igbo woman Win?

Yet you want peace, for where, we will finish this in heaven walahai

Btw, Igbos are now growing onions incase you don't know.

Choi wahala dey oo
You can rewrite the story ad kill the yoruba woman sef

This nonsense can only stop say 80yrs from now if we do away with state of origin and replace it with place of birth.
We can keep living in denial and mediocary as long as we want till that bold step is taken for our children unborn.

The northerners did not unite against terrorism and you expect the rest of Nigeria to unite with them against terrorism....

You must be living in a dream...

lovely article

blacks have no luv on the general, not only here in nigeria, we live and die in hatred, as for igbos they are too full of themselves,very proud, rude and very ill mannered. so this is just the fact..

We can not live as one. We don't even speak the same language.
Nigeria is a fraud.
